There are two methods to match the remote control for BYD F3: 1. Key Insertion and Removal Method; (1) Enter the driver's compartment of the BYD vehicle, close the door, and lock the button; (2) Insert the BYD car key into the keyhole and repeat the insertion and removal action 6 times in the keyhole, which must be done in one go; (3) Immediately after the insertion and removal action, turn the car key to the right to start the vehicle; (4) After starting the vehicle, press the middle button of the new key, which is the unlock button; (5) The new remote key for BYD is successfully matched. 2. Control Box Matching Method. (1) First, purchase a BYD F3 remote control matching kit and open the vehicle's trunk; (2) Then connect the control box to the adapter cable; (3) Next, connect the other end of the adapter cable to the adapter cable inside the right side panel of the trunk; (4) Close the trunk and try using the new key, the matching is complete.

I enjoy tinkering with my car in my spare time. Last year, I paired a remote key for my old BYD F3. The steps were actually quite simple: First, sit in the driver's seat, open the door while keeping all other doors closed, and insert the key without starting the engine. Within 6 seconds, quickly turn the key from OFF to ON and back, repeating this four times, ending in the ON position. At this point, you'll see the turn signal on the dashboard flash once—immediately press the unlock button on the new remote. A beep will confirm the successful pairing. Remember, the entire process should ideally be completed within 30 seconds; if there's no response after that, you'll need to start over. Also, make sure to replace the remote's battery beforehand and test if the old remote still works to avoid wasting time. In my case, the battery was dead, but after replacing it with a new button cell, everything worked fine.

As someone who frequently deals with car maintenance, I've handled quite a few BYD F3 remote control pairings. The key is to master these critical steps: When entering learning mode, only the driver's door should be open, with all other doors and the trunk closed. The ignition switch cycling must be done decisively - rotate it completely from LOCK to ON position four times, with about half-second intervals between each rotation. When the hazard lights flash once, the system is ready - immediately press and hold any button on the new remote for 2 seconds. Maintain complete silence in the car during the process and avoid stepping on the brake pedal, otherwise the system might exit the pairing mode. After successful pairing, it's best to test all remote functions including door locks and the panic button. If multiple attempts fail, check whether the anti-theft system fuse in the fuse box (located at the lower left of the cabin) has blown.

Last time when helping my neighbor pair his 2015 F3, I discovered a trick: first use the old remote to unlock and deactivate the anti-theft system, otherwise the new remote might fail to unlock after pairing. The specific operation involves three steps: insert the key without starting, quickly turn the ignition switch on and off twice within 10 seconds and leave it in the ON position; open the driver's door and press the central lock switch on the door panel; finally, hold down the lock buttons on both the old and new remotes simultaneously for 10 seconds until the car lights flash. Throughout the process, the vehicle will emit prompt sounds that you should pay attention to. The first thing to do after successful pairing is to test the remote range, which should normally respond beyond 5 meters. It's recommended not to start the engine during the entire process to avoid voltage fluctuations affecting signal transmission.
